I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this primary school and added some references. There is very little secondary coverage, however, and all that I have found is local. Given the small size of the school, currently 13 pupils, I think it is unlikely that other coverage exists which would demonstrate its notability. I don't think it meets WP:GNG, WP:NCORP or WP:NSCHOOL. There was a discussion on the article's Talk page in 2012 about notability, which resulted in sources being added at that point.

- Redirect It seems a pity after the work you put in, but yes, this is an independent school and so it needs to meet WP:NORG. It doesn't. Would a redirect to Waldorf education make sense? It wouldn't be listed there, which is a problem, but that might still be a the kind of information someone would be seeking about it. But perhaps the better redirect is Lancaster, Lancashire, where the school is listed. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:57, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Ah yes - or what about a redirect to List of schools in Lancashire#Independent schools? Tacyarg (talk) 10:44, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yes that would work too. However I suggested the Lancaster article because it contains a little more context of the area. No strong feelings either way though. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:08, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- I slightly prefer Lancaster, Lancashire#Primary schools for the target, but either way, this is a redirect, with an optional merge of a sentence or two's worth of information. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:17, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
